Ceigall India stock ends 4% higher after securing ₹1,369 crore solar PPA projects; still down 31% from IPO price

Shares of closed Wednesday’s session, March 25, higher by 4% at 275 apiece, as investor sentiment improved after the company executed two long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).

In a regulatory filing today, the company said it has signed two PPAs through its wholly owned subsidiaries — Ceigall Green Energy MH1 Limited and Ceigall Green Energy MH2 Limited — with Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Co. Ltd. (MSEDCL).

The agreements involve the development of solar photovoltaic power generating stations with a combined capacity of 337 MW under the Mukhyamantri Saur Krushi Vahini Yojana 2.0 (MSKVY 2.0).

The combined EPC value of the projects stands at approximately 1,369 crore. The company said both projects are expected to be completed within 18 months, followed by operations, maintenance, and power supply for 25 years under long-term PPAs at a quoted tariff ranging between 2.72 and 2.86 per unit.

The infrastructure company has been in the headlines for securing in March; however, its shares have remained muted amid ongoing uncertainty. On Tuesday, the company received two EPC orders from Purvah Green Power Private Limited, to be executed in Andhra Pradesh, with a combined value of 300 crore.

Last week, the company said its subsidiary, Ceigall Infra Projects Private Limited, secured an order worth 603 crore from the National Highways Authority of India for the construction of a 10.30 km stretch under NH(O) in Punjab on a hybrid annuity mode.



The project is expected to be completed within 18 months, followed by operations and maintenance for 15 years. During the same week, the company also secured a similar order worth 274 crore from the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, with a construction period of 48 months and a maintenance period of five years.
